Sports fields too strong at low zooms #618

Closed pnorman closed 10 years ago

e.g. z11 image vs image.

(v2.15.0 vs v2.13.0)

They're actually both a bit strong.

What do you mean by "strong"? The latest version is a lot lighter.

Apologies for the duplicate. From there, another example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=51.7389&mlon=-1.1893#map=10/51.7389/-1.1893

And to answer @RobJN, "strong" to me means means both overly intense and unwarranted: at z13 they look like contrasty flyspecks, and z13 is far too low a zoom for sports grounds to have any relevance.

They sort of draw you in at that zoom, because - hey, they must be important to be visible this far out, right? Until you get the the point where you see it's like a tennis court or something.

I agree with the issue. Unexpected effect caused by my change in render order.

RobJN commented 10 years ago

The titles been updated! Either that or I missed the "Sports" bit the first time. Now I get what you are talking about I totally agree. They look even worse on z10-12.

matkoniecz commented 10 years ago

I also was confused by original title. And I agree that it is a problem.

vholten commented 10 years ago

One way to solve this issue is to hide the outline of sports fields (tracks and pitches) at low zooms, as I show in #629.

Solved in #629
